What is the subject complement in the nurse felt your pulse?

There is no subject complement in this sentence. In this sentence "felt" is a transitive action verb with "pulse" being a direct object, receiving the action of the verb.To have a subject complement in the sentence, "felt" would have to function as a linking verb. Example: The patient's pulse felt rapid. (In this case "rapid" is a predicate adjective describing the subject "pulse"; "rapid" is the subject complement.)


Does the sentence The nurse felt your pulse have a subject complement?

No. The verb "feel" may be a linking word in some cases, but it is not one in this sentence. True linking verbs are forms of the following verbs: be, seem, and become. Other verbs, like feel, may be linking verbs if they are functionally equivalent to the verb to be. Example: "John feels embarrassed" is the same as "John is embarrassed" and in this case "embarrassed" would be the subject complement. In the above question, however, "The nurse felt your pulse" is not functionally equivalent to "The nurse is your pulse" or "The nurse seems your pulse" and so there is no subject complement in this sentence.
